Directly on the harbor front, Mattakeese Wharf invites you to experience spectacular views of Barnstable’s seaport while you dine in comfort. Choose Mattakeese Wharf for lunch, dinner or a leisurely Sunday brunch. Sip cocktails and watch from the Mattakeese Wharf indoor deck as the sun sets and the harbor settles into its evening hum. Feast on steamers and lobster, or try their pasta, steaks, and other seasonal seafood. Catch all the Sox games at the bar. And while you’re there, order a slider with homemade potato chips baked with melted bleu cheese off their bar menu.

3. Chapin’s Restaurant – Dennis

Steps from Chapin and Mayflower Beaches complete with sand dunes and beach grass, Chapin’s is the place to enjoy a casual leisurely lunch or dinner. Signature dishes include Lobster Quesadilla, Cobb Salad and Lobster Pie. The seasonal outdoor Raw Bar compliments the “beach casual” theme, and is ideal for informal outdoor dining. The full service bar and lounge, the decor, and fun atmosphere makes Chapin’s the local favorite.

The Chart Room Restaurant opened in 1966 and was originally a barge and is now converted into a restaurant. The Chart Room serves lunch and dinner and offers seafood, steak and sandwiches. There is indoor seating and outdoor seating on the covered porch where you can enjoy the sunset over the water.
